Service
WARNING
Disconnect power before servicing unit.
CAUTION
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dan-
gerous operation. Verify proper operation after ser-
vicing.
At the beginning of each heating season, a licensed profes-
sional technician (or equivalent) should check the system
as follows:
Blower
Check the blower wheel for debris and clean if necessary.
The blower motors are prelubricated for extended bearing
life. No further lubrication is needed.
WARNING
The blower access panel must be securely in place
when the blower and burners are operating. Gas
fumes, which could contain carbon monoxide, can
be drawn into living space resulting in personal inju-
ry or death.
Filters
All G60DF(X) filters are installed external to the unit. Filters
should be inspected monthly. Clean or replace the filters
when necessary to ensure that the furnace operates prop-
erly. Replacement filters must be rated for high velocity air-
flow. Table 3 lists recommended filter sizes.
Flue And Chimney
Check the flue pipe, chimney and all connections for tight-
ness and to make sure there is no blockage.
Electrical
1 − Check all wiring for loose connections.
2 − Check for the correct voltage at the furnace (furnace
operating).
3 − Check amp−draw on the blower motor.

Cleaning the Heat Exchanger and Burners
NOTE − Use papers or protective covering in front of the fur-
nace during cleaning.
Cleaning the heat exchanger requires a steel spring
snake," a reversible drill and a vacuum cleaner. The steel
spring snake may be constructed by purchasing a 4 ft. long
by 1/4 inch diameter steel wire cable and a 1/4 inch diame-
ter wire brush. These items are available at a hardware
store. Insert wire end of brush into the open end of the
spring cable. Crimp the cable around the brush so that the
brush is secured and will not come off during cleaning. At-
tach the other end of the cable to the reversible drill to com-
plete the tool for cleaning the heat exchanger.
1 − Turn off both electrical and gas power supplies to fur-
nace.
2 − Remove flue pipe and top cap from the unit. Label the
pressure switch wires, then disconnect them.
3 − Remove the four screws that secure the combustion
air inducer. Carefully remove the combustion air induc-
er to avoid damaging blower gasket. If gasket is dam-
aged, it must be replaced to prevent leakage. See fig-
ure 1.
4 − Remove the collector box located behind the combus-
tion air inducer. Be careful with the collector box gas-
ket. If the gasket is damaged, it must be replaced to
prevent leakage.
5 − Label the wires from gas valve and rollout switches,
then disconnect them.
6 − Disconnect gas supply piping. Remove six screws se-
curing the burner box / manifold assembly to the vesti-
bule panel and remove the assembly from the unit.
Take care not to damage the gasket.
7 −
NOx units only
−
Remove the three screws that attach
the NOx insert to the corbel at the entrance to each
heat exchanger section. Carefully remove the NOx in-
sert from each section. See figure 23.
8 − Insert the brush end of cable snake into the top of one
of the heat exchanger openings.
Do not force the
cable into the heat exchanger.
Insert the cable and
operate the drill on slow speed. Move the cable in and
out of the heat exchanger section three or four times or
until sufficient cleaning is accomplished. Reverse drill
and slowly work the cable out of opening.
9 − Repeat procedure for each heat exchanger section.
10− After each of the top heat exchanger sections has been
cleaned, insert the brush end of the cable snake into
the bottom openings of each of the heat exchanger
sections and clean as described in step 8.
11− Remove the cable from the heat exchanger. Use a vac-
uum cleaner to remove debris knocked loose during
cleaning.
12− Attach the exhaust end (positive pressure) of the vacu-
um cleaner to the top of the heat exchanger section.
Any loose debris will be forced to the bottom of the heat
exchanger section. Vacuum debris from bottom open-
ings.
13− Replace collector box and combustion air inducer.
Check gaskets for damage. Damaged gaskets must
be replaced to avoid heat exchanger leaks. Replace all
screws to the collector box and combustion air inducer.
Failure to replace all screws may cause leaks.
14− To clean the burner, run a vacuum cleaner with a soft
brush attachment over the face of burners. Visually in-
spect inside the burners and crossovers for any block-
age caused by foreign matter. Remove any blockage.
